Abstract
Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MNs), which develop after cytotoxic, radiation, or immunosuppressive therapy for an unrelated disease, account for 7%-8% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Worse outcomes and consequently shortened survival are associated with t-MNs as compared with de novo AML. Therapy-related MNs are being reported with increasing frequency in successfully treated acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), in particular, before the introduction of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) plus arsenic trioxide (ATO). Considering the high curability of APL, t-MNs represent one of the prognosis-limiting factors in this setting of leukemia. We report our experience with a patient who developed t-AML 15 years after treatment for APL. Treatment included three cycles of chemotherapy with CPX-351 (Vyxeos, Jazz Pharmaceuticals) followed, as in remission, by an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. A review of available literature was also included.

Abstract
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is currently considered a disease with a higher cure rate. And cases of secondary malignant tumors following successful APL treatment are rare. Here we described a rare case of a 29-year-old man who was treated for APL in 2019 and developed BCR-ABL1-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia 2 years later. The patient responded well to tyrosine kinase inhibitors and chemotherapy, and achieved a molecular remission. Although APL usually has a good prognosis, the prognosis of its secondary malignancies is uncertain. There are no effective measures to prevent the occurrence of secondary tumors. Continuing to increase the monitoring frequency of laboratory tests, especially the molecular biomarkers, is essential for the diagnosis and treatment of secondary malignancies after the patients achieving complete remission.

Abstract
目的 探讨急性早幼粒细胞白血病(APL)患者继发治疗相关性髓系肿瘤(t-MN)的临床特点、诊断、治疗及预后。 方法 回顾性分析中国医学科学院血液病医院2012年10月至2019年1月收治的4例APL继发t-MN患者的临床资料,并进行相关文献复习。 结果 4例APL继发t-MN患者均为女性,中位年龄42(40~53)岁,3例接受了以维甲酸(ATRA)+亚砷酸(ATO)为基础联合蒽环/蒽醌类药物±阿糖胞苷的前期诱导缓解及巩固治疗方案,1例采用了ATRA联合蒽环/蒽醌类药物±阿糖胞苷的治疗方案,均没有使用烷化剂。在APL获得完全缓解(CR)后40~43个月出现t-MN,其中治疗相关性骨髓增生异常综合征(t-MDS)1例,治疗相关性急性髓系白血病(t-AML)3例,出现t-MN时PML-RARα融合基因均为阴性。3例t-AML患者接受了2~4个疗程再诱导治疗,其中有1例t-AML患者在获得CR后行异基因造血干细胞移植(allo-HSCT),1例t-MDS患者接受了去甲基化治疗。中位随访54.5(48~62)个月,2例t-AML患者死亡,出现t-MN后中位生存期为12(5~18)个月。1989至2018年文献共报道63例APL继发t-MN病例,与本次报道的4例汇总分析,67例患者中男27例,女40例;中位年龄为52.5(15~76)岁;中位潜伏期39(12~168)个月,确诊t-MN后中位生存时间为10(1~39)个月。 结论 APL继发t-MN较为少见,目前缺乏有效的防治措施,预后不佳,在随访过程中(尤其是获得CR后39个月左右)若出现病情变化,应警惕t-MN的发生,对此类患者应尽快明确疾病的变化,给予合理的治疗。

Abstract
Although rare, secondary clonal hematologic neoplasia may occur after successful therapy for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). These secondary clonal events may be considered therapy-related, but may also be due to an underlying background of clonal hematopoiesis from which both malignancies may develop. In this manuscript, we describe two patients with secondary clones after APL therapy characterized in one patient by deletion of chromosome 11q23 and, in the other, by monosomy of chromosome 7, and also provide a review of all secondary clonal disorders described after APL therapy. We suggest that since most reports identify karyotypic abnormalities not typically associated with chemotherapy, there may be another mechanism underlying secondary clonal development after complete response to initial APL therapy.

Rare cytogenetic abnormalities in myelodysplastic syndromes. Mediterr J Hematol Infect Dis 2015; 7:e2015034.

Abstract
The karyotype represents one of the main cornerstones for the International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) and the revised IPSS-R (IPSS-R) that are most widely used for prognostication in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The most frequent cytogenetic abnormalities in MDS, i.e. del(5q), -7/del(7q), +8, complex karyotypes, or -Y have been extensively explored for their prognostic impact. The IPSS-R also considers some less frequent abnormalities such as del(11q), isochromosome 17, +19, or 3q abnormalities. However, more than 600 different cytogenetic categories had been identified in a previous MDS study. This review aims to focus interest on selected rare cytogenetic abnormalities in patients with MDS. Examples are numerical gains of the chromosomes 11 (indicating rapid progression), of chromosome 14 or 14q (prognostically intermediate to favorable), -X (in females, with an intermediate prognosis), or numerical abnormalities of chromosome 21. Structural abnormalities are also considered, e.g. del(13q) that is associated with bone marrow failure syndromes and favorable response to immunosuppressive therapy. These and other rare cytogenetic abnormalities should be integrated into existing prognostication systems such as the IPSS-R. However, due to the very low number of cases, this is clearly dependent on international collaboration. Hopefully, this article will help to inaugurate this process.

Abstract
To identify patients who developed secondary clonal cytogenetic aberrations (CCA) following therapy for acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), we retrospectively analyzed cytogenetic results from 123 patients diagnosed with APL between 1995 and 2007, who had ongoing cytogenetic analysis undertaken in our laboratory. During follow-up for APL we identified 12 patients (9.8%) who developed CCA, not detected at diagnosis of APL and unrelated to their original APL karyotype. All patients had received all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and chemotherapy and were in complete remission for APL when secondary CCA were identified. The median latency period between diagnosis of APL and emergence of secondary CCA was 27.5 months (range: 2-54 months). To date, four patients with CCA have been diagnosed with therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome (t-MDS)/acute myeloid leukemia (t-AML), giving a median t-MDS/AML free survival of 78 months, with follow-up ranging between 20 and 136 months from APL diagnosis. Three patients have died: two patients died of t-AML and another developed relapsed APL with persistence of his secondary clone but no diagnosis of t-MDS/AML and died from transplant-related complications. Two patients are alive with t-MDS. Seven patients with CCA are alive with no morphological evidence of MDS at the time of their last known follow-up; thus median survival has not been reached. The appearance of these abnormalities in the absence of morphological evidence of MDS in the majority of patients is unusual, and highlights the importance of continued cytogenetic follow-up in these patients.
